Object Type | PhysicalObject |
Medium | 1/4 inch audio tape |
Contributor | Day, Christopher (interviewer); Méndez, Antonio Feliciano (consultant) |
Notes | This is the original field recording, for which no dates are given. (Here JJT assumes that the interview took place in 1965.) Note that the number "VI" has been given to this tape arbitrarily since: 1) Day assigned no number to it, and 2) there is a gap in the original numbering between "V" and "VII". Note that about 40-and-a-half minutes into the recording on Track 1, Day concludes the session only to resume it on "la secunda dia" [sic]. (Day apparently chose the 1 ⅞ ips speed to squeeze the entire interview onto one tape.) |
